...the student understands a concept that was a mystery to them previously. I have the ability to take concepts and teach them in different ways. I tailor my tutoring to fit the learning style of the student. I think that is really important because it is very hard for a visual learner to learn from just listening. I also engage the student in learning. For example, having them label a diagram that I have just...

...2016. While at Rice University, I was selected to participate in the Honors 1-on-1 Peer Mentoring Society, the Society of Martel Mentors. From this experience, I gained the competence to effectively tutor math, science and english disciplines. I have personally taken and performed well on the SAT as well as the MCAT. I believe that strong test-taking strategies directly translate into higher final scores, and therefore choose to incorporate test-taking strategy instruction in my tutoring...

...middle/high school science and mathematics. I like to assess my students with their strength and weaknesses to find an optimal measure of efficient study method. There are different ways of learning; audio, visual, kinesthetic, etc. I believe the key to success in studying is to pair a student with the appropriate complementary learning technique. I enjoy making my study session interactive through improtu questions and role swapping to gauge student's learning point.

I have a Master's Degree in Chemistry from the University of Colorado and a B.S. in Chemistry from Geneva College, with a second major in Mathematics. I have taught freshman College Chemistry and home school students Chemistry (both regular and AP level) and Physical Science. I have tutored high school and freshman General College Chemistry.

...currently in the MD/PhD program at Johns Hopkins, where I plan to combine both my clinical and basic science interests particularly in cancer. Ever since I can remember, my favorite subjects to learn as well as teach were the Biological and Physical Sciences. Always inquisitive, I find that those topics are so logical and amazing because they can explain everything around us. During college, I was a teaching assistant for General Chemistry and also tutored...

...physical sciences. I have experience tutoring students ranging from elementary school to college. Working with students from different backgrounds has shown me that each student has a unique learning style and preference. I think it's important to show how concepts are relevant by making connections to real world applications and providing examples. I know how overwhelming school can get, especially if you're a freshman in high school or college, and I am eager to help...

...soon branched out to local junior high and high schools where I focused on tutoring Math. While I always enjoyed tutoring undergraduate students, I found great satisfaction in teaching Math to struggling teenagers. From my experiences, I learned that anyone can tackle basic mathematical ideas if they are given proper patience and instruction. Furthermore, I have learned that every student has a unique style of learning. My tutoring philosophy embodies this notion and I strive...

...am applying to medical school this summer. I have three years of experience teaching Chemistry and Biology to undergraduates as a Supplemental Instruction Leader and Teaching Assistant in a upper divisions Cell Biology Laboratory. I am passionate about teaching science, especially Acid Base Chemistry, Metabolism, and Molecular Biology. I enjoy these subjects because I believe that all biological processes and physiology can be essentially explained through the principles of chemistry. Nothing excites me more than...

...from the same university and moved on to do a postdoctoral fellowship at the National Cancer Institute in Bethesda, Maryland. I moved back to my home country Cyprus and did a second postdoctoral fellowship on cancer at a research institute there. I was then hired as a lecturer at public and private Universities teaching Biochemistry, General Chemistry, Molecular Biology and General Biology for college students. I can also teach Genetics, Cell Biology, Microbiology as well...
